Who am I
Who am I by Casting crowns is such a true song that it makes me cry each time I hear it. It’s like who are we compared to the great I am, the king of kings, the prince of peace. We are nothing. He can end our lives with …
N-Dubz - Playing With Fire - Single
I have to admit that N-Dubz make me laugh both with their behaviour and their dress sense but the more I hear their music the more I appreciate what they do and it’s mad to think that such good music can come from this band but they do it.

Blueprint 3- Jay-Z
I had a chance to listen to the new Jay-Z album which is the Blueprint 3, and it is one of my most favorite music albums of the year. This is Jay-Z’s 10th album and even at almost 40 years old, he is still one of the best rap …
Suck It and See, 2011 Album by Arctic Monkeys
When I first heard this album, I was a little confused by it. It is just that I still had the memory of their early work, and I was simply at a loss as to the degree to which their music had changed since then. There are only slight …
311 band

The Chronic- Dr. Dre
The 1992 album, The Chronic, by West Coast rapper Dr. Dre is a classic. Even after 17 years, the album still sounds very fresh in my mind and I still play it in my car regularly to this day. The album was famous for three hit rap singles which …
Indescribable
Indescribable by Chris Tomlin is a song that sums it all up. Indescribable is just the word to describe what god is. He is hard to explain and in so many ways you can’t explain him that’s why I agree he is one hundred percent Indescribable. I like this …
Sia - Bird Set Free (Song)
Yes, that’s the real artwork for Sia’s newly debuted song titled “Bird Set Free”. She’s been getting weirder and weirder as she’s deeper into her career, now she’s refusing to have a camera in front of her face. Her album covers and live performances are so weird to be …
Gallows - Orchestra Of Wolves album

The Eternal, 2009 Album by Sonic Youth

Disturbed (Indestructible)

Taylor Swift - folklore
“Dad, do you know Taylor Swift?”

Kunst, 2013 Album by KMFDM
